PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Gujarati Samaj of Baltimore has maintained a rich tradition of bringing diversified cultural programs for our members at very reasonable prices. In that respect, we are proud to bring a unique Janmashtami Raas – Garba Program on August 11, 2012. This special Raas – Garba – Bhangra program is in recognition of and for the benefit of our local young artists. These award winning young artists perform and compete in many national competitions all over U.S.A. We are organizing this event to showcase their talents, to encourage them to continue our rich cultural traditions and to financially support their future endeavors. Individuals & teams from area colleges will give exceptional live performances from 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM. From 10:00 PM to Midnight the floor will open for all to participate in our traditional Raas – Garba. Young musicians and singers will entertain you throughout the program. Please dress up in your traditional Raas – Garba outfits and attend this program to appreciate and encourage our talented young artists. We are counting on your support. More information is included inside this Newsletter. Gujarati Samaj of Baltimore organized an exceptional show ‘Ek Shaam Rafi–Kishore Ke Naam’ in New Town High School in Owings Mills on Sunday, June 24 from 4:00 PM to 9:30 PM. “This is one of the best musical performances we have seen in Baltimore area” were the comments from most of the attendees. Everyone was mesmerized by Nafees Anand – Voice of Rafi, Kishor Bhanushali – Looks, acting and singing just like Dev Anand, Gujarati and Hindi songs by Mahendra and Nikita. Not a single person left the auditorium until the end of the show. However, I would like to mention that only 160-170 persons attended this program and we suffered a great financial loss. We will keep bringing such outstanding programs at reasonable prices in the future. I am requesting our members and others to attend such programs whenever you can in the future. Please visit our website gsbaltimore.org frequently to get timely information about future programs and other important information. In next few months, we will be upgrading and enhancing our website with many new and useful features. We always welcome your suggestions and value your opinions. Please feel free to contact us at anytime. We are looking forward to see you at future events. Thank You. Hament Patel
